If you happen to have a few grains, or cupfuls of sugar in your pantry, better hold on to it for an emergency, because the chances are slight that an additional supply will be procurable this year. Merchants expect to receive very little sugar before next January. The shortage is nothing like local, various other places throughout the entire country are in the same fix. The management of the Majestic Theatre, of this city, has closed a contract with the owners of the theatre building for the erection of a 30-foot extension to the honse and it is expected that work on the building will gp commence within a few days. This extension will give room for something like 100 additional seats and will relieve the congestion which is at times experienced in the present show room. It is also not unlikely that a building to the rear of the show and facing on Confederate g street of sufficient size to accomodate the plant of the local newspaper. The Times, will be a included in the building opera I WE T ' JV/' | V We thank you for the very short period solicit the continuanc ests at all times. No Best Pat. Self-Rising Flour, p Best Pat.

An aeroplane, flying from Charlotte to Rock Hill and carry- 1 ing a film for the Palmetto 1 Theatre in the latter city, attracted the attention of many Fort Mill people Monday. The rnachine also carried a number of copies of the Charlotte Observer which were thrown out 1 as the birdman circled over ( Rock Hill. The machine when ! it passed over Fort Mill was apparently 1,000 feet up and was > making very slow time, probably ' twenty-five or thirty miles an < hour. It was also seen by a ' number of people as it returned < to Charlotte about 5 o'clock in the afternoon. i I The Rock Hill Herald has this 1 to say of the visit of the flying ' machine to that city: mi * a 1 1 i e use aviaror naa a numuer 01 ' local passengers. Max W. Bryant ' made the trip to York and back, though the machine did not effect a landing at the county scat. During the afternoon , there were a number of flights | and each time a local passenger ? was carried aloft. Rock Hill ; look3 like a huge garden from 3 above, it was stated, her streets | appearing as ribbons would about j the foliage of greenery. The < rough places are obliterated < when looking down ancl im- | perfections are not apparent. It looked like a veritable garden of i Eden, was one expression after j a flight. - ] Mrs. Max W. Bryant had the ( honor to be the first Rock Hill woman to soar to hitherto unknown h< irhts and Mrs. Bryant i stated ti.ai she enjoyed the | sensation immensely. It was smooth gliding through the hazy atmosphere and she was delicrhted with the birds eye view of the surrounding country. No fancy stunts were attempted | during this trip. , Nose dives and tail spins, also < the loop the loop were easy stunts for the aviator, who flew a distance upside down and asked his passenger how he liked it.

J. ADCOCK, Manager. It was Rock Hill's first opportunity to see the real aviation stunts and, of course, they were greatly enjoyed. Shortly before 5 o'clock the machine arose for the return trip to Charlotte. Charlie Cobb was the passenger this time and he stated the trip was made in about 18 minutes, though no effort was made to break speed records. The Cherry road looked like a dream, he said, and the spires of the Charlotte churches were (rlimncpH hofnro f Kow crossed the Catawba, which looked like a spring branch during a dry spell in August, rhe aviator took a fancy for a nose dive when over the circus grounds and his passenger was fixing to select a landing in the haystack before the elephants when the machine flattened out and made a graceful, if uneventful, landing nearby. Cotton Reaches 40 Cents. "The great buying movement and wild scramble for cotton has begun and, as a result, that staple is now bringing between 38 and 42 cents a pound," says i statement issued from Columbia by the American Cotton association. The statement declares that the best grades are extremely scarce and that the mills are in a virtual stampede for it. The prediction is made that "cotton in December will reach the highest level it has reached since the reconstruction days following the civil war." Middling cotton was bringing 40.50 in Galveston, Texas, Saturday, according to the statement, and there was a scramble for every bale offered for sale. "If the farmers would hold their cotton off the market and not offer it all for sale now, there is no telling to" what figure the market would go," says the Btatement.
